AP Exclusive: Manafort had plan to benefit Putin government

"President Donald Trump's former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, secretly worked for a Russian billionaire to advance the interests of Russian President Vladimir Putin a decade ago and proposed an ambitious political strategy to undermine anti-Russian opposition across former Soviet republics, The Associated Press has learned. The work appears to contradict assertions by the Trump administration and Manafort himself that he never worked for Russian interests."

Lol this just keeps getting better. The Trump Administration has been trying to distance themselves from Manafort since this came to light, re-writing history to pretend he wasn't massively involved in their campaign.

This will get interesting when Manafort gets hauled in front of a committee.

They can't deny he was involved in the campaign. Well...they tried to do that. But...why was he fired? How will they explain that?

The same way they have explained all of their shady bullshit, lie repeatedly and face no consequences because they have all 3 branches of government.
